Hello Twitter! I got very tired of people dismissing asexuality as an "internet orientation," so for Slate I combed through historical archives to show that asexuality has been discussed as part of the queer community since as far back as 1907: slate.com/human-interest…

Conversion therapy is a major problem for asexual people. Unlike other queer identities, asexual people appear most likely to encounter conversion therapy from medical professionals. Often, it’s unintentional. But even unintentional conversion therapy is harmful. (🧵)

Denying that Asexual people exist, or are oppressed… is Acephobia. Also so many people don’t have a clue what Asexuality actually is, it’s wild how they’re so confidently wrong.

FYI You can’t “cure” asexuality. It isn’t an illness to be “cured”. Asexual folk are subjected to horrific “Conversion therapy” practices, including corrective rape and threats of SA, to try and “cure” them. Asexuality is not a “new” thing either. Stop denying reality.

hating demisexuals is acephobia and should not be tolerated. people invalidating demisexuality is disgusting and I'm tired of seeing it on 911twt.

We truly don't know what to do with youngsters Laddie and Sassy. This bonded pair is pretty shy and they hate life in the Sanctuary. They aren't going to show well, which significantly decreases their chances of adoption. Who will give them that chance? #Tucson

Asexual men aren't "the most dangerous people in the world." It's very disappointing to hear this harmful and discriminatory misinformation spread on Trevor Noah's podcast. Asexuals aren't incels. It's vital for "experts" to understand the difference.

As Yasmin says, ace and incel are basically complete opposites, and a lot of people forget (or never actually learned) where the term incel comes from: INvoluntary CELibate. They want sex but can't get it. Meanwhile, asexual men often DON'T want sex but are pressured to have it.

this is concerning. I can see how an uniformed person might use "asexual" to mean "sexless" not trying to reference an orientation in particular. but in the current climate we ought to be careful. especially with TERFs spreading the idea that asexuality is dangerous.

ASPEC QUESTION: What helps you feel positive about being aspec? We asked this question to members of the AASP community and people talked about finding a community who understand them and make them feel seen. (1/2)

idk if you know this but there's a duology about a demisexual chosen one who saved her island from dragon riders at 12 and then five years later is forced to choose between saving the world or saving her lesbian sister who has bonded with an enemy dragon bookshop.org/contributors/k…
